About Me

Hi! I'm Valerie, the ambivalent blogger. What does that mean? It basically means that I'm hoping to have something to share that will resonate with someone either creatively or in my reflections about good people and good books in my life.

First of all...I express my creativity through hair...have been playing with hair for 25 years and recently did hair for the popular Discover Girls Magazine, and am currently a content contributor with Girl:IT Magazine (present in Australia, Finland, Germany Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Austria, and Hungary) and TweenGirlsStyle Magazine. So I hope you'll enjoy my YouTube posts as I enjoy these great opportunities. Putting myself 'out here' is a vulnerable place for me and I am enjoying the experience of practicing courage in this effort...an attribute that I value deeply.

However, I couldn't bring myself to just write only about hair. I'm sorry but that sounds soo boring and actually, quite two dimensional. So I'm going to spend my time writing about something that will allow you to get to know me a little deeper level. Charles Jones once said "You are the same today as you'll be in five years except for two things: the books you read and the people you meet." I intend to write a weekly tribute about either a person or a book that has impacted my life.

So please enjoy this hodge-podge of a blog...where you'll come to know me creatively through my YouTube tutorials and you'll come to know my experiences as I move through the world of beautiful people and powerfu books.
